Humor is almost always anger with its make-up on. - Stephen King, Bag of Bones

"For men, I think, love is a thing formed of equal parts lust and astonishment. The astonishment part women understand. The lust part they only think they understand."

"I see things, that's all. Write enough stories and every shadow on the floor looks like a footprint; every line in the dirt like a secret message."

"A person can go along quite awhile if they get a good day every once and again."

"I felt lonely and content at the same time. I believe that is a rare kind of happiness."
